Awesome car Paul and good luck with the sale although I am hoping you keep it & and you go ahead with the s/c kit.

Very nice Dan

Those are my favourite types of day, windows down, heater on, stereo up and a heavy right foot! Marvelous

Nice pics Mark

Nice

Or in my garage! You'd swap them with the first person that offered you shiny things. Yours are still in there!!! 1 is and there is more cardboard in that than fibreglass!!! I had forgotten about that though, will grab it off you

Yeah, the fitment does need work which is stated in my eBay ad, nothing that a good bodyshop couldn't sort out though. £100 for your set is a massive bargain, if i didn't already have genuine rears I would have driven half way across the country and had them off you! I was even tempted to buy them as spares and store them in the loft! Don't suppose you have some genuine fronts lying about do you?

+1 very useful tool indeed

It was close with just the wheel on and no tyre so I was guestimating with a tyre on.

The whole lot is push clips. You have to start with the long thin trim piece that runs over the lower rubber strip by the door. After that the piece higher up the B pillar comes off....the piece that goes round the seatbelt bracket point and goes into the first section of the boot. Repeat the other side. The small gloveboxes are removed by opening them then pulling them out...GENTLY, the doors can snap off easily! Once these are out, the section that covers the rear speakers will come off, again with just push clips iirc. Once that is off you can take the panel off that the gloveboxes are on but remember not to pull it too far from the metal work as the 12v output connection needs to be undone before you can fully remove it. This is all from my memory of a few years ago when I first took all mine out and as I have changed a few bits since then it may not be 100% but it is how I remember it to be

I assume you are talking about the Firenze wheel in that fitment. I have one here that I have test fitted on my Z and imo, it sits very close to the suspension strut so you would need a 20mm spacer on it to fit properly.

Happy Birthday

+1, they are just push fit clips

Have heard this a few times, best bet is to put something like a felt sticky pad or something similar on the flap so it doesn't give a plastic rattle

I have smoothed over the rear wiper hole, door handles, side indicators and aerial and on all of them I have welded pieces of metal in behind them and then filled over the top. Not saying this is the only way to do it as the other ways would probably be ok as well but I don't know enough about that detail of bodywork to confirm either way to any more degree

+1 I actually liked the graphics he had on it too. It now just looks like all the other bodged veilside cars. +2 Is that the way you all see my car

My brother has had one of these for a while and he loves it. Does exactly what it says on the tin, good choice imo, especially if it means the Z stays!

Genius!

Looks well. My next door neighbour has the same coloured M3 & the Carbon Black scrubs up nicely and the blue flick in the paint comes out. Nice one

Perhaps, but considering Jay had the rims "dulled" it would be pretty had to match up I would have thought... Good point, I had forgotten he had that done, they had some kind of sparkle something or other in them as well now I come to think of it.

New rim maybe??

+1 and it confirms to me I made the right choice in ditching mine!

Good choices. Stubby though, you can pick up on ebay for under a tenner iirc Maybe consider some hi flo cats or similar at the same time as the exhaust to save having to swap things twice?
